Hey everyone

I have 9 recent PT's left that I plan to take before the November 11th LSAT. Would it be ideal to have all of them except maybe one or two done before the final week leading up to the LSAT? That way I'd have completed all the material and can focus solely on review that week. Or is it better to just keep at my current pace and not switch to primarily review the final week. Thanks for any advice!

Hi all! I will be taking the LSAT for the first time in April. I am PT-ing in mid-160s right now and aiming for a mid-160 to high 160s on my first test. Please send me a message if you're interested in joining a study group for the April test.

I just did the skill builder for drawing valid conclusions 1 and I can't wrap my head around it at all is there any other better more in depth explanation for it?

Hi all,

I just took PT 87 today under timed conditions, and I'm surprised to say my LR score went up! The 80's have been killing me with the LR; is 87 a lot easier or something? I just went from a -8 average a week ago to a -3 today?

How do you do fellow 0Ls?! 🍦

Hi all,

I haven’t received a response from 7Sage about my switch to the V2 version of the core curriculum, so I’ll share my thoughts here. I am a little over 64% done with the LR section in the V1 version. I wrote down a list of the question types I did on V1 and what I have left. So I clicked the “complete” option on the ones I did for V1 on V2, and that left me with 6 question types compared to 9. Do you think I went about that correctly?

Also, the foundations section for V2 has a lot more lessons than V1, but I was thinking of clicking the “complete” option for the foundations section and just come back to specific lessons for questions I get wrong. Is that a valid approach?

Also, does V2 use more recent questions? What happened to the problem sets and using problems from tests 1-35?

I would appreciate any help!

E is the wrong answer and A is the right answer. Can someone explain why A is right and not E?

For those who had their November score on hold, have you gotten it? Any updates?

I'm registered for the April 2024 international LSAT but see that scheduling is still "TBD." Does anyone know approximately when LSAC will open scheduling?

So everyone who does well on the lsat specifically on LR tells me there are patterns. What are these patterns that I should look out for?

I have taken the LSAT before in a testing center (when they first became available again after COVID). I plan to take the June 2024 LSAT and am thinking of taking it remotely because I feel like in the testing center, I was distracted and it caused me even more stress, especially since it was not the same as my study area. So, for those who have taken the remote LSAT, what was that like? I know I have heard some horror stories but I do not know if that was the testing experience for the majority of test takers.

I had originally chosen AC C because I didn't carefully read the "that is not based on coconut oil" portion, so now I can see how D is correct.

However, if C had said "Nondairy coffee lighteners made with coconut oil..." - would that have made it a strengthening AC? It seemed like the stimulus was trying to allude to the fact that maybe fat has a stronger impact on cholesterol levels than cholesterol themselves.

I just received this email from LSAC: "We are writing to let you know that your recent LSAT session is currently being reviewed, along with others, for an incident that was recorded during the administration of the test. Please be assured that your session is intact and your test answers have been recorded properly."

Has anyone else gotten this? Are they just telling me because my score will come out late or are they trying to set the stage to tell me they have invalidated my test for some reason?

Feel free to message me if interested in .

I had originally been scheduled to take the LSAT in June, deferred it until August due to my strengths being in LR and RC, and now am unsure of how to proceed.

I have an extremely firm grasp on the LR and RC and do not wish to study the small, pedantic details for a 2nd and 3rd time because I do not want to get into my head and overthink.

But also I am worried that if I strictly take practice tests for 2 months straight, I will be burned out for when I take the test in August.

Has anyone else experienced this and how did you proceed?

-Thank You

Ok, I did a practice session on the LSAT practice on LSAC. I bombed it spectacularly with 5/23. I have autism and sometimes have problems with testing. Is there any LSAT prep programs that are in person? Thank you

I was wondering when implementing drills into your studying how you guys do it? Should I be trying to drill a specific type of question (i.e like MSS in LR, SA in LR, or Grouping in LG, etc) and don't move on to another question type until you get 100% timed? Or do you move on once you get 100% BR?

Or are there any other strategies that help you guys more?

Hi guys,

I am taking April LSAT and I just took PT88 and got score with -6 drop from my usual. I am not too worried about LG -2/-3 is ok for me but I just got like -12 in LR and -15 in RC. I usually get between -6/-9 for LR so I guess 3 more questions I can pass but I usually get -6 on RC with max -9 but with -15 in this RC I don't know what to do anymore.

Has anyone seen this major drop with scores with this PT particularly or maybe few weeks before the actual exam? I took one from the 90s and I didn't even do that bad on it so now I am confused where I lie. My scores have not dropped nor increased (LOL) for like the past few months and I was pretty happy with my score of 159~ 162. I got 153 on this PT so what will be the actual score on the real one? OR is this PT just from hell and I should just burn it and act like it never existed LOLOL

Hi,

Could someone please help me with interpreting "except" in this sentence?

In order to encourage personal responsibility in adults, society should not restrict the performance of any of the actions of adults or interfere with the likely results except to prevent negative effects on others.

This short premise is originally from PT 69 Section 2 Q15. The way JY interprets except in the sentence is that "if there is interference, then it is to prevent negative effects on others". I understand this logical transition. However, in the syllabus, doesn't he say that "except" is a bi-conditional indicator? So, will we use "except" as a bi-conditional indicator here to translate the logic?

Thank you for the help!!!! I sincerely appreciate any helpful comments.

Admin Note: Edited title. For LR questions, please use the format: "PT#.S#.Q# - brief description of the question."

I do not understand why the answer is C (Not having his third meal with peppers) rather than A (not having any meal with peppers. Can someone explain this so I can better understand?

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to share that I got my first 180 on a PT! It wasn't a fresh PT, it was the same one I used for my diagnostic many months back, and even though I remembered very few of the questions I'm sure that inflated my score to some extent. I was given the advice to retake old PTs during my last week before my test and I'm mainly sharing this to let you all know that it's good advice I'd recommend. It helps boost confidence which is essential going into game day and still lets you practice pacing and the like without burning yourself out in the last week. Definitely found it worthwhile for myself and would encourage others to try as well. It's particularly fun retaking your diagnostic to remind yourself how much you've grown over the course of your studies.

Good luck to all my October brethren. Rooting for y'all!

So I've been noticing a trend lately where my RC score has been varying widely. Sometimes I'll score -4 and then the next day I'll score -10. Does anyone have any tips on how to fix this problem and become more consistent on RC?

Hi,

I live in Idaho, took the January LSAT and I am now preparing for the April LSAT. Looking for a study buddy in the same time zone so we can chat/zoom about topics. Message me if interested.

Thanks!

I have been struggling in the LR section, especially in the middle to end of the section. After question 14/15, I tend to get mostly all the questions wrong getting about -10 to -12 wrong in this section. I really hope to improve at this section by the NOV 2021 LSAT. If anyone is kind enough to tutor me for about 3-4 hours a week it would be greatly appreciated. I can compensate you for the hours! I am looking to score in the high 150s, at best a 160. My LG is my strongest section as I occasionally only get about -2 or -3 wrong. I have decided not to prepare as much for the RC with the limited time I have as I feel LG would be easier to improve in the coming weeks. I am looking to get down to -5 or -6 on the LR. Let me know if anyone is able to tutor!! It would be very much appreciated.

Hey all.

I'm looking to start a study group or be a study partner in the SLC/Provo area.

Currently, I am scoring around 15high 16low and am drilling LG like crazy. I will be taking the LSAT in June, but I'm considering an April test as well. This will mostly be for accountability purposes and surrounding ourselves with likeminded people. I think we can also support each other in our admissions efforts when the time comes.

Message me on here so we can exchange information.
